Ratings and reviews

Very buggy. Had a situation where the app was trying to forward old messages I received a long time ago. Ended up forwarding hundreds of messages before I stopped it! The filters which are very important sometimes disappear after you do an Update (you have to actually change a filter otherwise the filter as it exists is lost). Gonna try some more tests but I may have to look for something more reliable.

There is no reason for this app to be subscription based. There is no server side service that is needed in order for this app to work. Everything happens on the device itself. Edit for the dev: I never asked for it to be free. I said it doesn't have to be a subscription based app. Sure forwarding to telegram and such can use a server but it doesn't have to. Most things can be done locally and you also locked other features that do not require a server behind this new paywall.

It works great for forwarding that a call was received and see the contents of SMS text messages. You can also configure it to send events like power on/off, battery low etc. I am using it to forward these types of things to an email account.
